You say that I've been following thread sentiment, but I contributed my own ideas on Shapelog after I saw Rayn talking about him. The other 3 people I mentioned just said they agreed with what Rayn wrote, which was just a convoluted meta-reason of how Rayn expects Shapelog to read a post, which I don't see how anyone who isn't Rayn can agree with without their own reasons. Really the more that I think about it the more bullshit I think your push is. There were lots of people that "followed thread sentiment" on Kelsier/Shapelog. Kelsier was probably right about you just wanting to jump in with HF from the start of the game.
The part where you scumread ES stuck out to me specifically. Something about the timing of it. Its kinda hard to explain but it feels wrong.
What isn't helping right now also is that I'm sure that KSC is scum, slam was definitely scum, and you voted on the only other wagon going.
Rayn also did, but although none of his logic appeals to me but I think he's town.

I mentioned that you liked Rayn's Shapelog post and then you tried to contradict me, which doesn't sit well with me because you answered to Rayn that you would lynch Shapelog if it we were at the deadline.
I didn't agree with Rayn's shapelog post but I had other reasons for not liking shapelog. Read the following again from that point of view and see that it makes more sense than whatever you are trying to make up about me liking rayn's post.
I don't think its a slam dunk but its definitely an interesting case. I can see a situation where someone doesn't apply a way of thinking that they are capable of, without having mafia motivations.
That said, I don't really like shapelog's posting in general. Sort of pressured ES a little bit then dropped it, made that post about trfel and then went back on it later while still leaving room to go back to the suspicion if needed.

I literally told rayn why I thought his post was wrong and you say that's me liking rayn's post.
|
The thing about the timings is basically that you did follow thread sentiment straight away with ksc and then shapelog, which is fine, and if i was mafia i would definitely want to make my own case instead of just sheeping rayn's weird logic, but then i pointed it out and then all of a sudden you're scumreading ES out of nowhere with no prior explanation.

Just to clear this up one more time this is the sentence i am talking about:
I can see a situation where someone doesn't apply a way of thinking that they are capable of, without having mafia motivations.
That is saying to rayn that his case on shapelog doesn't make shapelog mafia.
|
I can see where the confusion is grack the first sentence of that post was a bit of a stupid thing to write when rayn was clearly wrong. I think I was trying to be nice about it tbh.

Maybe this is true. I'm an irrational beast. But I'm trying grackaroni, I'm trying damn hard to be rational.
I'm happy to drop it and keep scumreading you until something changes my mind. I'm not tunnelled so that could happen especially if you are town.
Honestly there's more going on that just the timing of your reads, the voting thing I mentioned does matter at this point, given that I'm scumreading ksc and you voted on the only other wagon.

Yeah I think I said ''at least one of'.

This is what I meant before when I said I didn't care about his claim unless it caused chaos. It's a problem that will sort itself out short order.
Fair point. Let's see who's here tomorrow night. There was little point in posting a reads list right now anyway but ES asked me to. Better to see what info we get tomorrow and work from that.

I'm looking back at that talk I had with grack yesterday and reading it in the cold light of day it looks like I'm being a bit stupid. I'm still suspicious based on voting alone but i'm upgrading him from scum to scum lean. The way he carried himself during that argument does seem more townie than mafia.
I still think we should kill shapelog because of what rayn said. Going off my personal reads list, if shapelog flips mafia we're in a great spot (in this case my reads might be wrong and I would probably just sheep from this point) and if he flips town I'm looking at ksc and one of grack/eywa (mayyyyyyyyyyyyybe Pandain) and that's game over.

Like I said, its not particularly relevant in the next day or so. I'll be going for a shapelog lynch regardless at this point, so grack only becomes relevant if shapelog flips town and even then ksc must die first before grack becomes a factor.

The post about not knowing who to vote seemed honest which I liked but it always seems to be a struggle for him to post a read like he has to fabricate it. I don't know, just a gut feeling. Don't write him off just because he voted afk slam. I'll need to have a reread but don't expect much I'll be in handover meetings all day.
I just can't see him flat out killing a teammate with two other wagons available. Its not the correct play at all imo. Its vaguely possible but.... no. If trfel and slam are both mafia, then at least one of kels/shapelog isn't and that gives him an out.

Hf can we talk about trfel please?
Him being town is pretty important if I'm going to go along with a shapelog vote tomorrow.
I can't see any way that trfel isn't town. He had the choice of 3 wagons, if trfel is mafia then at least one of those 3 is town and he can safely vote for them. He hadn't town read either KSC or shapelog at any point during day 1 so wouldn't have been contradicting himself. Both ksc and shapelog were being scumread by alot of players so no-one would raise any eyebrows at trfel voting for either of them.
I know you said its a just a gut feeling right now but can you see that the logic of the situation pretty much means he has to be town?

Nothing logical works in mafia, ever. That's a lesson you'll have to learn. I agree it's quite unlikely but I can't shake the gut feeling.
I'm not sure that this is true, more like you can't trust logic over everything else. I'll keep an open mind but continue to presume that trfel is town unless I see something extremely convincing.

So I'm using this general strategy to solve the game (using lynchings if there's no vigi), but it relies on two assumptions being true. I'd like help to identify any weaknesses in this plan.
1: We're assuming that trfel and ES are town for killing slam. I rate this at +90% chance of both being town. I'm happy to proceed under this assumption
2: If shapelog is town then ksc is mafia and vica versa. Is it possible that neither are mafia --- how likely is this? This to me is the biggest weakness of this plan. I'm fairly certain on ksc but there's always the possibility of reads being wrong and I don't want to pursue a strategy that screws everything up based on whether one of my reads is right or not. ^^ Sorry if its already been explained why one of ksc and shapelog must be mafia but I can't remember that conversation.

If no-one else was voting I would go for ksc. If the plan above seems sound then I'm happy to go with shapelog just so that we're all on te same page and we can have a nice, smooth, easy day 2.
